The Commission also approved India\u2019s proposal to develop a new international Codex Standard for Cashew Kernels, further strengthening the country\u2019s role in shaping global food regulations. The adopted standards include Dried Coriander Seeds, Fresh Curry Leaves, Vanilla, Large Cardamom, water reuse in food production, control of Campylobacter and Salmonella in chicken meat, and updated food labelling provisions. These science-based standards are expected to enhance food safety, consumer protection, regulatory harmonisation, and international trade, while reinforcing India\u2019s growing leadership in global food standard-setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-07-18-at-20.45.59-819x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1742\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-07-18-at-20.45.59-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-07-18-at-20.45.59-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-07-18-at-20.45.59-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/WhatsApp-Image-2026-07-18-at-20.45.59.jpeg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India has achieved a major milestone at the 49th Session of the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC49) in Geneva, with the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1741"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1741\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1743,"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1741\/revisions\/1743"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/foodnewsindia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
